Streaming Audio Setup

Touch Radio uses the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) 
protocol to play digital music files from your PC or Mac 
computer. First you must configure your computer for 
media sharing.

These are the recommended system requirements:

• For a Windows PC, use Windows Media Player (WMP) 

version  11 or higher.

• For a Mac computer, it should be running OS X or later 

with a UPnP application installed to access an iTunes 
library.

View information about the song that you 
are listening to.

View technical information about the 
station that you are listening to.

Add the station you are listening to as a 
new favorite. Select a slot in your 
Favorites list to save to. If there is an 
existing favorite in the slot you selected, it 
will be replaced automatically.

Cycle between the Repeat Once, Repeat 
All and No Repeat options.

Turn on or off shuffled playback of your 
playlist.

Skip to the previous song in the playlist.
Tap and hold to rewind the currently 
playing song.

Skip to the next song in the playlist.
Tap and hold to fast forward the currently 
playing song.

Plays the currently selected song.

Stops playing the currently selected song.

NOTE

• There are alternative UPnP platforms 

which can be used, but the following 
instructions are for WMP.

• iTunes does not currently operate a UPnP 

media server, but there are a number of 
third-party software applications (many of 
them free) which can enable you to access 
your iTunes library.
